Using this Pottery Barn image as inspiration,


Lakeitha from Home To Three Duncan Boys created this fun bedroom for her son. I like the way she mixed it up a bit from the inspiration photo by, for example, painting blue and white stripes in the closet versus using the striped duvet. Two other favorites in the room are the pallet headboard and the DIY light fixture. Click here for more room photos, and here for a source list.


Erika at Blu Label Bungalow designed this fabulous boy's room. My favorites are the stripes and the wall grouping!


Her design also included this clever book sling. She has an excellent tutorial so that you can make your own HERE.


Chic Coles takes these chairs (a score on Craig's List) from boring black to fabulous turquoise! Love it!



Candace at Crafty Sisters took an old dresser from this
